According to MAL, the first season sits at 6.44, which would be something I would skip. While there are some Anime I have seen and considered "good" at 6-7 rating, they are not particularly noteworthy. But everyone is different in that case.
But, actually looking at the article, I don't think that the summary of this poster is actually that representory of what the article is about.
First, it lists all Anime that have been released or will/should release this year. This includes the list above since it is the "Fall 2026 Anime release dates". So, it is just a copy-paste from the article of what has been released/will be released this year, not that it is "big".
But the "Top Pics" of the Author(s) (1 writer, 2 contributors) are the following:
- Cyberpunk: Edgerunners season 2
- Jujutsu Kaisen season 3
- My Hero Academia: Vigilantes season 2
- Frieren: Beyond Journey's End season 2
- JoJo's Bizarre Adventure: Steel Ball Run
- One Piece: Elbaph Arc
- The Apothecary Diaries season 3
- Sekiro: No Defeat
- The Ghost in the Shell
Ah, that makes more sense. Lot of good stuff coming out though!
Not good enough to keep me from dropping it after a couple of episodes. Maybe the light novels are popular or something.
At least they didn't attempt to claim that the reboot of Magical Girl Raising Project was in any way notable.
There's a lot of stuff missing from the lists in the original article (compared to livechart.me, which is what I normally use), probably because whoever holds the streaming rights doesn't consider them worth announcing in advance.
im surprised how some very good anime takes so long for a second season.
Just be glad it gets a second season at all. The number of anime that are dead on the vine for no apparent reason is crazy.
